“I’m not all that smart. It takes me a while to understand things. But if I do have the time, I will come to understand you — better than anyone else in the world.”

— Haruki Murakami

“The most intelligent men, like the strongest, find their happiness where others would find only disaster: in the labyrinth, in being hard with themselves and with others, in effort. Their delight is in self mastery. In them, asceticism becomes second nature, a necessity, an instinct. They regard a difficult task as a privilege. It is to them a recreation to play with burdens that would crush all others. They are the most honourable kind of men: but that does not prevent them being the most cheerful and most amiable. They rule, not because they want to, but because they are. They are not at liberty to play second.”

— Friedrich Nietzsche, The Anti-Christ

Scientists discover brain's neural switch for becoming an alpha

Timid mice turn bold after their ‘alpha’ circuit is stimulated as results show ‘winner effect’ lingers on and mechanism may be similar in humans

Prof Hailan Hu, a neuroscientist at Zhejiang University in Hangzhou, China, who led the work said: “We stimulate this brain region and we can make lower ranked mice move up the social ladder.”

The brain region, called the dorsal medial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC), was already known to light up during social interactions involving decisions about whether to be assertive or submissive with others. But brain imaging alone could not determine whether the circuit was ultimately controlling how people behave.

The latest findings answer the question, showing that when the circuit was artificially switched on, low-ranking mice were immediately emboldened. “It’s not aggressiveness per se,” Hu said. “It increases their perseverance, motivational drive, grit.”

Mentiras

Entonces, ¿soy sólo yo que vivo engañado o el único lo suficientemente patético para admitir que algunos estamos incompletos? ¿Que nos mentimos a la cara unos a los otros, diciendo que estamos bien? Actuamos como grandes paredes de piedra que no sienten nada, cuando en verdad podemos ser igual de frágiles que una casa de naipes. Todos necesitamos soporte, no sólo nuestras edificaciones ficticias.

Me pregunto qué necesitará pasar para enseñar nuestra verdadera cara. Nuestra necesidad por otra persona, no sólo otro amigo que nos escuche quejarnos, si no nutrir nuestro ser con más que palabras. ¿Habremos puesto nuestro estándar tan alto que nadie ni nada califica? El amor no debería ser rogado, ni tampoco hecho tan difícil de conseguir que lleguemos a ése extremo.
